wow, fltk plotting looks impressively mature. The problems with
artifacts in patches plots are Mac specific so the situation on Linux
is even a bit better than shown in Ben's comparison.
However if I had time I would do the following:
- add some listeners for repositioning labels after the axis position
has changed (see e.g. axis_04_1.png)
- implement polar axes. This is quite straightforward to achieve, just
a bit of code writing no need for big infrastructure changes and
design decisions.
- implement sub/super-scripts support
Having these done, fltk could easily become the deafault.
Unfortunately my free time is very limited in this period.
